    Marines with 5th Battalion, 11th Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division, I Marine Expeditionary Force, fire a 21-gun salute in honor of fallen Marines during the Sunset Memorial for the 70th Anniversary of the Battle of Iwo Jima at Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, Calif., March 7. The evening included a banquet, a performance by the 1st MARDIV Band, and a video message for veterans from Commandant of the Marine Corps General Joseph Dunford. “Your legacy is the young men and women who use your example of courage and commitment to inspire them to confront and overcome the challenges that they face today… I pledge that today’s Marines will keep the spirit of Iwo Jima alive,” said Dunford.
